We're very excited to announce that DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 1 is now available for download! This version fixes a few Windows 10 Start menu issues that were present in 9.3. It also fixes a memory leak, TitleBar Button positions on some apps, and a few other minor issues.

Important Notes!

The first time you open the Settings > Screen Saver tab after installing 9.4 Beta 1, it will be very slow to open, due to Windows Defender locking the .scr files for a long time during the initial scan.

DisplayFusion 9.4 Beta 1 Highlights

Fixed an issue where the Win 10 Start menu sub-menus (Shutdown, User Menu, etc) would close immediately after opening

Fixed an issue where the Win 10 Start menu would re-open after selecting a program

Added new scripting functions for running functions and waiting until they're done

Today we're happy to announce that we've added another two-factor authentication (2FA) method. In addition to the current SMS 2FA method, you can now choose to use time-based one-time password (TOTP) 2FA instead, allowing you to get your 2FA codes through your favourite authentication app.

The TOTP method will work with any app the supports TOTP, including Google Authenticator, Duo, Authy, and more! With TOTP you also get an upgrade in security for your 2FA codes, since they can't be intercepted like SMS messages.

If you've already got SMS 2FA enabled, you'll get a prompt when logging in that suggests switching to TOTP. You'll have to disable SMS 2FA first, then setup TOTP. All of the 2FA configuration is done on your account page: https://www.checkcentral.cc/Account/

TOTP on the Account Edit Page

We highly recommend enabling TOTP 2FA on your account for better security, and as always, if you run into any trouble at all, please don't hesitate to contact us.

We're very happy to announce templates for CloudShow! This amazing new feature lets you copy a device configuration to a template, then use that template on as many devices as you want. Simply update the template and like magic all the devices using that template will be updated instantly. Check out the magic of templates today!

We've added the ability to collapse groups on your dashboard to make it easier to see only the information you need to see. The groups you collapse will be remembered whenever or wherever you login to CheckCentral!

Repeated Failure Notifications

New options for failure notifications give you more control over when you are alerted about the status of your checks. A check with a configured "failure notification grace period" will wait to send alerts until the specified time has elapsed. If the check returns to success before the alert is sent, it will be canceled.

The repeated failure option provides several options to control failure notifications when a Check receives multiple consecutive failures:

Notify on every failure: this will send an alert every time a failure message is processed by CheckCentral

Notify on first failure: this will only send an alert for the first of any consecutive failure messages

Notify on every failure after N consecutive failures: this will send alerts for every failure message after the limit is reached

Notify on every N consecutive failures: this will send alerts every time the specified number of failures are processed in a row, e.g. with a setting of "3", you would receive alerts for every 3rd, 6th, 9th failure, and so on

Configuration options for repeated failure notification

Newly Created Check Activity

As well, newly created checks will now have an initial starting activity (set to Success). This will allow the check to become marked overdue once the specified interval has elapsed. To leave the check in a neutral state that will not become overdue until a message has been received, you can delete that created activity.

In addition to these notification updates, we have also made several UI improvements and fixes, including the text for overdue check alerts and organization logos on PDF reports. If you have feedback or question about any of these updates, or anything else, please let us know!

We're very happy to announce the new Timer app and the ability to control a client's auto-start setting from the server. The timer app gives you a stopwatch that you can use to time things, just click anywhere in the content frame to reset the timer. The auto-start control lets you decide whether you want CloudShow to automatically launch on your device when the device turns on.

We're excited to announce the new "setCheckStatus" endpoint for the CheckCentral API! This is the first writable endpoint for the API. SetCheckStatus allows authenticated requests to update the status of a specific check. As well, the request can include an associated message, and optionally send alert notifications for the check as well.

A test call to the setCheckStatus endpoint

Only API tokens that are configured with Read/Write access will be able to make requests to this endpoint. Existing API tokens are set as "Read Only", with all the same permissions they currently have. You can modify a token's access level on your organization's API token management page, available under the "Organization" menu for organization administrators.

Stats CSV Export

As well as the API update, we've also included the option for CSV export on your organization's stats page. Any search on the stats page can be saved as a CSV report by clicking the "Save CSV" button.

Save Stats Page Reports as CSV

If you have any feedback, suggestions, or questions about the API or CheckCentral in general, please let us know!

We're very happy to announce that the new CloudShow Windows client supports per-frame scaling.
